Hot topics and fresh look on old problems: A new vision of the Journal of Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Disorders

Abstract

We would like to announce a new vision of the Journal of Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Disorders. Thanks to the contribution by former Editors-in-Chief, Associate Editors, and Editorial Board members, as well as all Readers we have a stable base and our journal is still growing. Today, it is safe to say that the journal has already matured and that it has a specific goal, specific groups of authors and readers—each of them is unique. The audience of our magazine mostly includes clinicians and scientists dealing with the subject of broadly understood gynecology with an emphasis on minimally-invasive gynecology, as well as the issues of pathophysiology, particularly comprising the topic of endometriosis, pelvic pain, reproduction, uterine fibroids, or some parts of endocrinology or gynecological oncology. Currently, our journal publishes a high quality peer-reviewed basic and clinical original research articles and critical reviews focusing specifically on the diagnosis, medical, and surgical treatment of endometriosis, adenomyosis, and associated disorders in all their multidimensional aspects. In our strategy for the forthcoming years, we will especially keep place for the most important current problems, controversial or unresolved topics in particular, which are not lacking in case of such a poorly understood pathology as endometriosis, pelvic pain, or uterine fibroids. To sum up, we believe that our journal will surely continue developing in all most important areas of clinical and scientific publishing—these mean standards, basic research, translational medicine, and clinical concept.
